Commercial insurance for over 30 years.

Our Approach.

Like a carefully assembled puzzle, we bring together the right cover, the right partners, and the right advice to create a complete picture for each client.

No two people are the same, so no two business solutions should be either. We simplify complexity, remove the guesswork, and connect the dots delivering insurance that fits seamlessly into real lives and real businesses. Thoughtful, tailored, and complete.

With over 30 years’ experience in the insurance industry, I provide practical, strategic advice with a strong focus on commercial risk.

My background includes senior management roles with leading insurers and establishing the New Zealand operation of a major Australian broking business over the past 13 years. I’ve advised everyone from large corporates to SMEs and domestic clients, giving me a broad and grounded understanding of risk.

Through Partners, I work alongside my clients to truly understand their business and exposures, then provide clear advice to mitigate those risks — primarily through tailored insurance protection.

While commercial insurance is my core focus, I also advise on domestic home, contents and pleasure craft cover. For life and health insurance, I work with trusted specialist providers to ensure clients receive expert guidance.

I maintain strong relationships with all major New Zealand insurers and selected overseas markets, enabling access to competitive, well-structured solutions.

I am a member of the Steadfast network, a board member of the Insurance Brokers Associate of NZ (IBANZ) and had the privilege of representing New Zealand in hockey at the Barcelona Olympic Games.
